      Daibutsu (the Great Buddha) of Kamakura

      The Great Buddha of Kamakura is a seated Amitabha Buddha (Amida Nyorai) made of bronze. Designated as a National Treasure in 1897, it is the main object of worship at Kohtokuin Shojosenji Temple. Historic documents state that work began on a gilt statue of Shaka Nyorai Buddha about 13.5 meters in height in the year 1252. It is not known when it became a statue of Amida Buddha. The exact date of the photograph is unknown.==Date:1904, Place:Kamakura, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number98‐4‐0]

        Soribashi bridge at Sumiyoshi Shrine

        This stereograph depicts Soribashi Bridge and the lotus pond. The parapets of Yorubehashi seem different from those depicted in photograph #4595, indicating that this photograph was taken sometime later.

          The Kaguraden and honden (inner sanctuary),Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine

          The building on the left seems to the Rinzo (sutra repository), which was later demolished. Since there is no tablet visible on the Romon gate and the square foundation stones are placed next to the Kaguraden, this photograph is thought to have been taken around 1870 when the temple buildings were demolished. Taken by Felix Beato.==Date:unknown, Place:Kamakura, Photo:F. Beato, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number62‐32‐0]

            Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine

            Labeled L17 HACHIMAN(B), the photograph depicts the Jogu Romon (upper shrine gate). The tablet on the gate reads Hachiman-gu. Since the view from the bottom of the stairs is similar to that in a photograph taken in 1893 and no artillery monument can be seen, this photograph is thought to have been taken between 1887 and 1892.==Date:unknown, Place:Kamakura, Photo:A.

                Lake Chuzenji

                Rokken-jaya at the lakeside is viewed from the precincts of the Chugushi at Futarasan Shinto Shrine. The fact that not a single building is visible on the lakeside in the Utagahama area to the right indicates that the photograph was taken in the early Meiji Period. Also, no stone embankment work has been done at the lakeside near Rokken-jaya.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:R.

                    Itsukushima Shinto Shrine was completed by Taira-no-Kiyomori during the Heian Period, and its splendor is still intact today. The Gakubo and Kadomarodo shrines are viewed from the western side of the Hirabutai stage in the main shrine building.

                      Daibutsu (the Great Buddha) of Kamakura

                      Like photographs #2748 and #3132, this is thought to have been taken between 1877 and 1887 when the reconstruction of the building was underway. However, no donors' signboards are visible. Also, there is a temporary shack on the lower right of the statue, but it is empty. This photograph may have been taken by Usui Shuzaburo (a 19th-century photographer in Yokohama). The Great Buddha is an object of worship and climbing upon it is prohibited today.==Date:unknown, Place:Kamakura, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo?, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number65‐6‐0]
